Observations and Revelations


Upon further investigation, I've come to the realization that my life, as I know it, is a sad and strange existence. No, I'm not going to sit here and throw myself a pity party (though a party sounds fun), just stating a few things likely for my own notation, if nothing else. Anyway, to get back to the subject at hand, take today for an example.

After getting home from work today, I get online and check my e-mail. Sounds normal so far right? Well I go through my regular mail and then into the junk mail, which is never, ever short of being full of crap. But what is this? Amongst the mass is something that catches my eye and I am sucked into it like the Millennium Falcon was when it flew too close to the Death Star (dork, noted).

What drew my attention? Was it free money? Or maybe a free trip? No on both counts.

So what was it really? An e-mail had arrived to let me know that Rebirth (Korean Manga series) volume 21 was going to be released on January 2nd!!! I was freaking excited to read it and after reading the volume's description (Desh becomes king of the vampires and he learns how to defeat his eternal enemy and one time friend, Kal, the God of Light, but at a steep cost!), was far beyond eager to read it for myself!!

Do you see what I'm saying? Here I am, getting excited over a comic!

Ok, alright... I'll come clean by saying I'll likely remain a dork until the day I die. No conforming here folks, no siree. I cannot explain how thankful I am to be with a girl who is as big a dork as I am or else I'd either be single right now or confined within a living hell.

Well now, after spelling it all out I really do not feel all that bad now. I guess writing that out was much more helpful then even I believed. Which brings me to my next subject of interest...

So I watched Rob Zombie's remake of Halloween and let me say that I actually enjoyed it. I didn't laugh or think anything was funny and it actually had me fully believing that Michael Myers is truly a psychopath. It was worth the rent and I am even considering on buying the DVD, which says a lot because I am a firm believer that Horror movies was dead and buried.

Which makes me hope, somehow, that maybe Rob Zombie will be picked up to save the Friday the 13th series because it damn sure needs to be! As I mentioned before, Jason X = Total shit.

And now it is time for me to watch yet another movie, this time it's going to be Shaun of the Dead, which I enjoyed. I still do believe Hot Fuzz was funnier, but I cannot deny that Shaun did have more then a fair share of funnies itself.
